Take back the photos
For they break my heart
And I won't wait by the telephone
With only silence ringing in my eardrum
Don't let the color of your eyes fade
I can't stop thinking about your voice
Or the things you used to say
It's keeping me up at night
Salt from my tears rusting shut my eyes
The color of my heart is beginning to fade away
Like a bloodstained Hollywood ending
Just another night with a sad song
Turn the car key and sing along
I still believe the lies when
I look in your pretty eyes
Another hour in front of a mirror
Suddenly the scars appear so much clearer
I cross my heart and hope to die
You gave your all and so did I
With a shivering heart I wait
Seeing you is seeing red
Swallowing tears shed
Until they are out of sight
But not really gone
Even when I turn out the light
Wipe the blood from your eyes
It's a heartache that you can never satisfy
It's cold with frozen kisses
Frost on my skin from the cold embraces
Holding hands until knuckles start turning white
Nothing in this soul left to say to make things right
It's okay if you only see gray
You'll see color again someday
